Many Thanks

Thank you to everyone who took time to comment on my layouts since Sunday. I still don't have a firm idea of how the quilt will look so I will get busy making more blocks, especially the blenders with 2 colors in them (yellow/orange, red/purple, etc.). It makes a huge mess to make crazy pieced blocks so I am reluctant to start them when I know the studio should look kind of neat and picked up. My art quilting group is coming next Monday so I won't work on blocks until at least next Tuesday. Even though they meet in the basement I like the studio to not be too much of a mess as they pass the doorway.

This is an "almost" postcard size piece. It is 4 1/4" x 6 1/4" so I think I was intending to trim the edges and have it be 4" x 6" but I already had the edges finished before I realized what I had done. Now I could come back and "fix it" by trimming off the edges and refinish them, but since I'm not participating in a swap or in any other way trying to push this off as a 4x6 I think I can live with it the way it is.
Building the background is a great way to use up the skinny clean up cuts of fabric. This one is all batiks so they are the same color on both sides and also don't ravel too much while working with them.
